Chapter 3 - Logic gates and logic circuits Flashcards
What are logic gates?
Logic gates take in binary inputs and produce a binary output
What are logic circuits?
Logic circuits are made up of several logic gates and are designed to carry out a specific function
What are truth tables?
Truth tables check the output of a logic circuit
What is the description of a NOT gate?
the output is 1 if the input is 0
What is the description of an AND gate?
the output is 1 if both inputs are 1
What is the description of an OR gate?
the output is 1 if either inputs are 1
What is the description of a NAND gate?
the output is 1 if both inputs are not 1
What is the description of a NOR gate?
the output is 1 if neither inputs are 1
What is the description of a XOR gate?
the output is 1 if one of the inputs are one ONLY
